Chapter 125 Villagers Help
125
Lin Cuicui wiped away her tears, looked down at Tang Yue, then exchanged glances with Old Li. Finally, she gritted her teeth, walked forward a few steps, and bowed to everyone.
"Thank you all for coming to help our family today, but this matter has nothing to do with you all. Everyone should go back quickly. We can handle it ourselves."
Mrs. Miao was anxious and slapped Lin Cuicui's arm angrily, "Cuicui, why are you so stubborn? Look at the old and young people in the family, and you are the only strong laborer, and you are pregnant. What will happen if something really happens?
We are all from the same village, and your family has done favors for everyone in our village, so it is only natural for us to help you.
If you have any problem, just tell us and we can all work together to find a solution. It will be much better than you all trying to deal with it on your own.”
Lin Cuicui still shook her head. They had only been in Daobei Village for a short time and had never come into contact with the entire village. Those spies were ruthless, and she couldn't implicate all the villagers of Daobei Village.
"I know the kindness of Mrs. Miao and all the villagers, and my whole family is grateful to everyone.
But some things are not that simple. We have already packed up our things at home and we will not be in the village for some time.
Captain, please reassign my father and I to new positions. If you can come back in a while, we can talk about it then."
Li Qingyang's face was serious. "What's going on? Can't we, the people in the village, solve it?"
Lin Cuicui just shook her head. Old Li also stood in front and saluted everyone.
"Thank you all, I, Old Li, would like to express my gratitude to you all. But you should all go back quickly. We don't have any major problems at home and we can handle them ourselves.
If anyone asks us about our family recently, we can just say we just arrived and don’t know them well enough.”
Someone in the crowd knocked on the ground with a pickaxe. "Why are you still being so hesitant? Just tell us what you want. We're all here, so why can't we help?"
Someone else also followed suit and said, "That's right. What kind of big deal is this? How can a family solve it as quickly as a village working together? Just tell us what you need to say."
Seeing that everyone still had no intention of leaving, Tang Yue stepped forward and said, "Grandpas and grandmas, uncles and aunts, brothers and sisters, thank you very much.
The reason why my grandfather and mother don't want everyone to know is because this matter is very dangerous.
Today, I can see that everyone here genuinely wants to help us. Everyone knows that my dad is in the army, and that we're from the north.
The reason we came from the north to the south to join the army was because my father helped others kill two small-time spies while hunting in the mountains.
I don't know what the spy's family background was, but ever since then, there have been low-level spies coming to our house to assassinate us. This is what forced my family to leave our home."
There were already gasps coming from the crowd. None of them had imagined that the Tang family was forced to come to South Island in this way?
They said, "I heard the north is a big granary. At least they can have more food than here, but these people came all the way from the north to the south. So this family has such a thing going on."
Li Qingyang understood more clearly, "Are those spies here again?"
Lin Cuicui nodded. She sighed. "Today, Yueyue and I went to the border town and were taken hostage by a group of bandits. After being rescued by the army, we were secretly shot by secret agents. If we hadn't escaped in time, we wouldn't be standing here today."
Having said that, Lin Cuicui looked up at all the elders and villagers and said, "Fellow villagers, I know you all have good intentions, but the spies are all insidious and cunning. Once you get involved, you can't get rid of them.
We have no other options. We all have our own lives to live. Please don't get involved in our family's affairs."
Some people had already considered retreating, but now they were standing in this courtyard, wondering if they had been spotted by the spies. They couldn't help but complain.
"Since we know your family is a nuisance, how dare you settle in Daobei Village? Aren't you deliberately bringing trouble to our village?"
Some people agreed, while others opposed.
Old Li's gratitude faded a lot after hearing those words, but he could also understand those people's feelings and explained.
"Don't worry, everyone. This isn't the war we experienced in the past. Those spies don't dare to kill anyone they see.
They only target our family. When we were in Qiligou, the spies did not implicate the villagers.
So don't worry, this is why we don't want to tell you and get you into trouble."
The villagers were in a dilemma. If they didn't help, they'd feel bad. But if they did, they were afraid of getting into trouble. Li Qingyang could see the villagers' dilemma.
Looking at the determined looks in Lin Cuicui's family, he knew they had no intention of asking for their help.
"Since Uncle Li's family said so, let's all go home and rest."
Some loyal young men started to ask, "Captain, are we going to just ignore them? What should we do with this family?"
Li Qingyang was also thinking in his mind, but he still waved to the villagers, "It's okay, everyone go away. I'll try to figure it out."
Although many villagers wanted to hold on, Li Qingyang was very determined. In addition, Old Li's family had no intention of asking for their help, so the villagers slowly dispersed.
Sister Miao was also feeling a little depressed now. She had never expected that Cuicui's family would be in such a big trouble. That was a spy.
They usually just treated these things as jokes or heard about them on the brigade radio, which seemed far away. They never expected that such a thing would happen around them.
Lin Cuicui noticed Sister Miao's worry and said, "Sister-in-law, you and brother should go back too. We are leaving now. Come back after this period is over and we have caught all the spies."
Mrs. Miao seemed to be hesitant to speak. She wanted to help, but she thought about the four children at home. If anything really happened to them, she didn't know how their family would live.
"Big sister, I'm sorry for this."
Lin Cuicui forced a smile, "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about? I've been causing you a lot of trouble since I came to Daobei Village. I've kept all of this in mind.
But this matter is really not something that we villagers can solve, so you don't have to blame yourself. Big brother, take your sister-in-law back with you."
Li Qingyang pondered for a moment and looked at Sister Miao, "Yujiao, go back first. I have something to discuss with Uncle Li."
Old Li refused directly, "Village Chief, please go home quickly. If you hear any noise from the mountain at night, don't come out. We appreciate your kindness, please leave now."
Li Qingyang was a little hesitant. After all, Uncle Li's family were all from Daobei Village. He really couldn't just stand by and watch, but if he came along to help, he didn't know what he could do.
"Uncle Li..."
Old Li quickly interrupted and even pushed Li Qingyang out, "Go home quickly and don't waste our time."
Li Qingyang paused for a moment, then realized they seemed quite anxious, and said nothing more. He just looked at Old Li deeply and said, "Uncle Li, you and your family must take care of yourselves."
Old Li nodded and said, "Hurry up, don't come near my house for the time being."
Li Qingyang sighed and pulled Miao Yujiao away. Miao Yujiao followed Li Qingyang home and lowered her voice, "Boss, we really don't care anymore."
Li Qingyang pulled Miao Yujiao and walked faster. "How can we manage it? They didn't want us to get involved in the first place. Besides, it's not a small matter. Let's go home quickly."
Miao Yujiao sighed. She didn't expect that Cuicui's family would encounter such a thing.
The three Tangbei brothers had been standing at the door watching without saying anything. Now that everyone had left, three people came forward. Tangnan and Tangdong took Tangyue's hand, and Tangbei followed beside them.
"Grandpa, Mom, let's go."
Old Li looked back at the four children, a smile on his face, "Have you finished packing?"
Tang Bei nodded, "Don't worry, Grandpa, there's nothing left."
"Okay, let's go."
Old Li said: Thank you all for your support. If you like our family and believe that we can kill the spies, please give us a good review. Thank you all very much!
